The possibility of ownership in Thailand

Since the Condominium Act of 1979 revised in 2008, it is possible for foreign investment to own a property. This is the case of apartments. Regarding the Villas, it is also possible to become an owner through other means such as the establishment of a Real Estate Company (SCI).

It is also possible to have a long term 30 year, twice renewable lease, summing up to 90 years in total. This lease is registered in the land registry so the owner won’t be able to evict you under any circumstances. That being said renewal can be complicated in time, so it’s safer to bear in mind the use of the property for the 30 years’ period for sure.
